UNSPSC 51473402 Octenidine, a Commodity code, covers antimicrobial cleaning and disinfecting agents that state and local governments procure for operational use across facilities and emergency services. The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners recently solicited octenidine and related janitorial supplies as part of a broader consumable supplies contract for the county's fire rescue operations.

The recent ITB issued by Hillsborough County (ITB2600319, due July 24, 2026) valued at $765,679.84 for a one-year term demonstrates the kinds of issuing bodies active in this space—county public safety departments operating 24/7 facility networks with recurring consumable needs. The solicitation required bidders to be authorized distributors capable of standard delivery within 10 days and emergency delivery within five business days, with delivery coordinated to the Public Safety Operations Complex in Tampa, Florida. Products must be new and unused in original packaging, with bidders responsible for providing backorder, recall, and chain-of-custody information. The County reserved the right to award by line item, group, or overall net bid price and retained no guaranteed minimum purchase quantities. No bid, performance, or payment surety was required, and the contract was eligible for shared purchase by members of the Hillsborough County Governmental Purchasing Council under identical terms.
